Was that not a Mr Bean episode? Probably not, Mandela effect.
He must have slept well then
At least he got a good nights sleep out of it! I’ve always found the ‘Sleeper’ part to be a bit of a missnoma when in motion and its really more of a ‘Caladonia light-dozzing-and-woken-10-or-15-times-during -the-night’ train.
clickbait paywall
This reminds me of sitting on a plane for 4 hours whilst they fixed an issue
Some guy had got on and slept for the whole 4 hours and woke up a bit surprised looking at the window
This article is basically just a write up of a twitter thread, so here’s said thread in case anyone else is curious:
What does he expect? It’s a sleeper train. The clue is in the name. It never left the station because it was *asleep*..
Once I was on the sleeper train.
On I get to find my seat. And there is a blind women in my seat. Ok, the train is full no where to go. Spoke to the guard and got an upgrade to first class…I did say give it to the blind women but he said it’s ok have it..
Free sarnies all the way.
Woken with a sausage roll and a coffee – that’s 5-star service by the standards of British railways.
